O Pandava, he who works for Me, regards Me as the Supreme, is devoted to Me, free from attachment, and bears no enmity toward any being — he comes to Me.
Commentary (टीका)
The chapter's essence — a five-fold formula: (1) work for God; (2) make God the supreme goal; (3) be devoted; (4) be free from attachment; (5) harbor no enmity. This bridges karma, bhakti, and jnana yoga.
